Dance – Double Murder by Hofesh Shechter. October 6 and 7. Grand theater of Provence, Aix-en-Provence.

The Israeli choreographer Hofesh Shechterpresents with the two plays, Clowns and The Fix, two facets of his talent. One bubbling and agitated, the other vaporous and tender. The red wire ? A feverish dance that leaves the dancers no respite.

Jazz – Chucho Valdés quartet. October 12. Grand theater of Provence, Aix-en-Provence.

The virtuoso pianist of Afro-Cuban jazz returns to Aix for a unique date. At 82 years old, including almost 80 years of piano practice, Chucho Valdés has played everything, won all the prizes, received all the honors and offers on stage his modern vision of music, on the borders of jazz, classical and Cuban folklore. .

Festival – Pop Philosophy Week. From October 16 to 21. Various places, Marseille.

This year, it’s a rewriting our national motto that the festival offers, under the title “Freedom, equity, solidarity”. The approach will be philosophical, sociological, artistic, literary, political, and pop at the same time!

Drag Race France. October 26. Cepac Silo, Marseille.

After crowning the divine Paloma last year, season 2 of Drag Race France elected Keiona, queen of Drag queens. All the candidates of the program will be on stage to present their single and give free rein to their whimsical lipsync… with the Marseillaise as exquisite mistress of ceremonies Nicky Doll. Definitely legendary!

Organic and well-being fair – Artemisia. From October 20 to 22. Chanot Park, Marseille 8th.

The exhibition dedicated to organic products, well-being and healthy living offers, alongside its many exhibitors, conferences and workshops to discover new Zen practices. Novelty of this edition: a “Little new” space dedicated to young companies participating in Artemisia for the first time.

Classic – Carnival of the Animals. October 28, at the Grand Théâtre de Provence, Aix-en-Provence.

When the music of Saint-Saëns meets the poetry of Elodie Fondacci, this gives this piece, already a classic for discovering the classical music.
